The Operations Safety Supervisor will calculate the number of miles between major mechanical system failures from daily incident reports and will store the data in an Excel spreadsheet. The O&M Superintendent will maintain the annual report in Excel from the data received from the National Transit Database process. The O&M Superintendent and Department Director will use the information to monitor the age of the fleet and will balance maintenance staffing levels with the needs.

28 Operations and Maintenance Division Measure #6B: Preventable accidents per 100,000 vehicle miles traveled. Effectiveness Ensure People Mover buses are operated in a safe manner. Accident is defined as any damage to a revenue vehicle resulting from incidents (e.g., collisions with stationary or moving objects, floods and accidentally ignited fires, etc.) A preventable accident is one which occurs because the driver fails to act in a reasonably expected manner to prevent it. In judging whether the driver's actions were reasonable, one seeks to determine whether the driver drove defensively and demonstrated an acceptable level of skill and knowledge. Calculate through the total number of miles operated divided by the number of preventable accidents. The measurement will be performed at the end of each month. The Operations Safety Supervisor will calculate the appropriate number of fleet miles and the number of preventable accidents and will store the data in an Excel spreadsheet. The Operations Safety Supervisor will create and maintain a quarterly and annual report in Excel. The O&M Superintendent and Department Director will use the information to monitor the safety of bus operations to improve driver training and reduce worker compensation and risk claims.
